Manchester City midfielder Phil Foden was pleased after their Champions League win at FC Copenhagen.

City took control of the round 16 tie by winning the first-leg 3-1 thanks to goals from Bernardo Silva, Kevin De Bruyne and Foden.

Foden later said: "It was hard to hear each other at times, the atmosphere here is unbelievable and the early goal settled us a little bit so delighted to get that.

"It's the most run of games I think I've had in the City team. You get a rhythm. I'm feeling good. You find your feet and you start getting connections with other players, I think that's what it's down to.

"Me and Kevin [de Bruyne] have built that connection now so we know where we're running. He's such an important player for us.

"When teams play in a low block you need runners in behind. Kevin knows the right time to make that movement and it makes my job easier. For me, there's no better player in the world at passing the ball. He's a pleasure to play with and so important.

"It's a special group. I enjoy being here every day. There's so much hunger. When you have that determination it goes a long way."
